Parts for Ge GWE23GENHDS: Freezer Door Parts

The Fastener Door Handle is an OEM component for GE refrigerators. This door handle provides a comfortable grip for accessing refrigerator shelves and bins. It attaches securely to the refrigerator door through durable metal fasteners. 

Causes for a bad door handle could be cracks, damage, or stripped fastener holes resulting in a loose or detached handle. Regularly gripping and lifting may also cause normal wear over time.

Symptoms of a failing door handle include:

• The handle detaching completely from the door  
• Looseness making the handle wobbly or unstable to hold
• Sharp edges or broken parts posing a safety risk

This OEM GE handle is also compatible with Hotpoint, RCA, and select Kenmore refrigerator models.

The Set Screw is an OEM part for GE refrigerators. The set screw fits into the handle assembly, ensuring a tight and stable connection to the refrigerator door. This set screw is essential for preventing the door handle from becoming loose or coming off, which can affect the ease of opening and closing the refrigerator door. 

Causes of a malfunctioning Set Screw can vary. Normal wear and tear is a common issue, causing the screw to strip or loosen over time. Incorrect installation is another factor.  

Symptoms of a bad Set Screw include:

• A loose refrigerator door handle, which may wobble or detach partially from the door.
• Difficulty in opening or closing the refrigerator door due to a lack of secure grip.
• The need to frequently retighten the door handle.

This OEM GE part is also compatible with Hotpoint, RCA, and some Kenmore models.

The Freezer Door Gasket is an OEM part for GE refrigerators. As the primary seal between the freezer door and the frame, it plays a critical role in maintaining proper insulation and temperature regulation within the freezer compartment. The gasket is designed with insulating materials to prevent the loss of cold air and absorption of warm air when closing the door. 

Causes of a bad gasket can include cracks, tears, or breaks that compromise the insulation over time due to regular use and door openings/closings. 

Symptoms of a bad gasket include: 

• Rising temperatures within the freezer, leading to melting or frost buildup 
• Accumulation of ice around the door seal
• Difficulty closing/sealing the freezer door tightly 
• Droplets or puddles of water forming around the base of the door

This OEM GE replacement part is also compatible with Hotpoint, RCA, and some Kenmore models.
